There's no way outside; you're here with your beliefs

And the change in action which was meant to end the grief

See you scratch the walls 'til your hands are stumps

Make the world conform on this notice brief



Never before and never again

Will they toss the righteous into the lions' den

Atlantic sea of blood as the sun draws near

The sanguine boiling ending this, the final year



And sure as you had hoped, the entropy reveals

That the so-called truth is parallel to what you feel

All on the mortal plane, nothing more is thought

And that you can't see is all that there is not

How the child has grown to this human mass

So relentless in his quest for that which seems to last

And the pillar great, moved from man to man

All but one convinced by the world at hand



Across an armament of human skin in the midst of what is real

And what is for us to feel and act upon, ever to justify

And you succeed, never a price too high

And the sand is falling faster, and it's falling free

Covering the great divides that be

And the ground is rising closer and the sky grows not near

Loving you, the final year
